Delicious (2021)
9/10
"Culinary" Gems
6 February 2022
This movie was a genuine pleasure to watch... in my book it ranks way up there with a few other movies that use food and cooking as the centerpiece around which the plot was built. Chef, The Hundred Foot Journey, The Big Night, Tortilla Soup, Babette's Feast, Burnt, Chocolat and Dinner Rush are the main ones that come to mind.

Delicious, and these others, stand out as exemplary stories... beautifully photographed, directed and acted.

The natural lighting used for interior scenes sets a very high standard for fellow cinematographers... The food looked so good I wanted to try "The Delicious" myself.

The directing was right up there with the work of Lasse Hallstrom.

And I will watch all day long the subtle acting of this fine ensemble cast... preferring it to the "obnoxious excess of personality" many actors bring to a role.

To sum it up............... incroyable !!!
